These are Radiation Levels, detected at Lake Norman High School in Mooresville, North Carolina. After uncovering records of Coal Ash being used as Fill Dirt during construction of the neighboring property (Palisades at Waters Edge Apartments) , we attempted to find any High radiation Levels at the High School, using a Geiger Counter. We are happy to report we have Not Found any levels higher than Normal Background radiation. We know there are a lot of Parents, Students and Staff who have been concerned about this School, following an abnormal number of Cancer Cases at this location. After our scans, we Do Not believe there are any alarming levels here. We Did Not see any exposed Ash or areas where we would recommend taking soil samples.

We believe the possible Risk is contained to the neighboring Property(Palisades at Waters Edge Vacant Lot), where students may play or walk to/from school on the gravel road. The possibility of contact to the skin, ingestion or inhalation of the dust is a grave concern once the Ash is exposed to the surface. Places where people, especially our children, gather and play should not be Coal Ash Fill sites.

The Gamma Radiation Level Tracks are created with ‘RadiaCode 103’ detection devices. Each colored dot represents a Radiation detection(dose rate), in microroentgens per hour. We use these detections to pinpoint Hot Spots, where Coal Ash is closer to the surface, within Coal Ash Fill Sites. Click on each dot to see the level detected. Radiation Levels range from Purple(Lowest per Track), then Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange and Red(Highest per Track). On each Map you can deselect the Layers (Individual Tracks) to more easily see the Highest and Lowest detection points of each Track.
